Embed a post

For: Page editors.

Show one X post on your page. Readers see who wrote it, its text, its photos or video, and its date. They see the source next to your notes.

Live example

On a launch page, put the public post under “What changed”. Place your team’s checklist below it. Readers can check the post against your plan.


We don't have a way to export this macro.

Before you start

  • You can edit this page.

  • You have a public X post URL.

  • You do not need an X API key.

X must still let people see the post. The app cannot bring back a deleted or private post. Keep the key facts in the page text too.

Add it to a page

  1. Open the page’s insert menu. Choose Embedded Post.

  2. Enter a public X post URL in Item to share.

  3. Choose your settings and check the preview.

  4. Choose Insert.

  5. On a regular page, publish or update it. Others can then see what you added.

To change it later, open its editor.

In the editor, Embedded Post is selected.
